1. The heart recalled a memory
Of exotic women,

2. Graceful with their purses,
In the alleys of the market.

3. Many a frivolity they committed
With maidens nearby,

4. Nothing forbidden in that
By the God of the West.

5. Except that we end conversations
With hurtful reproaches,

6. When I met her I said
Hello to the aloof one!

7. God has blessed us with love
Between the intimate and reproacher.

8. You are more delicious to me
Than the clouds' rain.

9. You are just a gazelle
Of a noble tribe,

10. Or a crescent that appeared
Amidst the stars' flowers.

11. I wish I were your student
So I would not have to seek you out,

12. If only I could be with you
Without needing to watch ourselves.

13. We spurn those who deceived you
With the words of liars.
